text: &#x2F; London, UK &#x2F; Remote okay if you can pair remotely.<p>GoCardless<p>We’re looking for someone to work with us for a couple of weeks to build a .NET-friendly client library for our API.<p>We’d like to work really closely to build a modern library that follows the best practices of the .NET community, and then to convert it into a template (our libraries are automatically built from templates and a JSON schema defining our API, so we can crank out new versions as soon as our API changes!)<p>Examples of our existing libraries can be found at:

text: I&#x27;m in the US -- Anytime is good - Remote is okay as long as we communicate<p>Got a project for scraping. I&#x27;m testing casperjs&#x2F;selenium. However, we&#x2F;I are curious as to whether a faster process can be implemented by using the browser (chrome&#x2F;firefox) directly.<p>Here&#x27;s the thought process:
-we have a file with complete urls. (these urls could be inserted into the browser manually, and the resulting content generated)
-we have an extension that runs within the browser. the extension can be &quot;triggered&#x2F;fired&quot;, to read the urls from the external file, and to extract the resulting content (dynamic or static) and to write the content to an external file. 
-ideally, the whole process would be able to access&#x2F;use multiple tabs within the browser space to iterate through the list as fast as possible.<p>This is obviously a short term project.  We&#x27;re looking to talk to someone asap to see if this is even doable, and to then scope out the process.<p>This is (hopefully) the 1st of a number of projects we&#x2F;I have a need for!<p>If you&#x27;re interested, send me your contact data to usc_dog@yahoo.com<p>thanks
